“…4 A few examples of such NPs are ZnFe 2 O 4 , MnFe 2 O 4 , 5 ZnO, Fe 3 O 4 , Fe 2 O 4 , CuO, ZnO, Ag, Cu, and Au. 6,7 These NPs possess surface plasmon resonance properties and are flexible in surface functionalization. Furthermore, their biocompatible nature leads to their broader use as anticancer, antibacterial, 8 antiviral, antifungal, anti-insecticidal, antiprotozoans, or antileishmanial activities.…”

Recently, the use of hybrid nanomaterials (NMs)/nanocomposites has widely increased for the health, energy, and environment sectors due to their improved physicochemical properties and reduced aggregation behavior. However, prior to their use in such sectors, it is mandatory to study their toxicological behavior in detail. In the present study, a ZnFe 2 O 4 @poly(tBGE-alt-PA) nanocomposite is tested to study its toxicological effects on a fruit fly model. This nanocomposite was synthesized earlier by our group and physicochemically characterized using different techniques. In this study, various neurological, developmental, genotoxic, and morphological tests were carried out to investigate the toxic effects of nanocomposite on Drosophila melanogaster. As a result, an abnormal crawling speed of third instar larvae and a change in the climbing behavior of treated flies were observed, suggesting a neurological disorder in the fruit flies. DAPI and DCFH-DA dyes analyzed the abnormalities in the larva's gut of fruit flies. Furthermore, the deformities were also seen in the wings and eyes of the treated flies. These obtained results suggested that the ZnFe 2 O 4 @poly(tBGE-alt-PA) nanocomposite is toxic to fruit flies. Moreover, this is essential to analyze the toxicity of this hybrid NM again in a rodent model in the future.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide, despite the many treatments available, cancer patients face side effects that reduce their quality of life. Therefore, there is a need to develop novel strategies to increase the efficacy of treatments. In this study, gold nanoparticles obtained by green synthesis with Coffea arabica green bean extract were loaded with Doxorubicin, (a highly effective but non-specific drug) by direct interaction and using commercial organic ligands that allow colloidal dispersion at physiological and tumor pH. Conjugation of these components resulted in stable nanohybrids at physiological pH and a tumor pH release dependent, with a particle size less than 40 nm despite having the ligands and Doxorubicin loaded on their surface, which gave them greater specificity and cytotoxicity in H69 tumor cells.

In this study, the antimicrobial effects of three different zinc-based nanoparticles, namely zinc oxide (ZnO), zinc chloride (ZnCl2), and zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4), on food-borne pathogen were investigated. ZnO and ZnCl2 nanoparticles were obtained as commercially, but ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were produced via sol-gel auto-combustion method. From the XRD results of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle, it was found that all the peaks agreed with the literature. However, there was also small amount of the secondary phase peaks corresponding to the ferrite (Fe2O3) phases. Significant differences were observed between the inhibition effects of nanoparticles on bacteria in the disc diffusion method (p
